The Minority in Parliament has announced plans for another protest against the Governor of the Bank of Ghana, Dr. Ernest Addison, scheduled for July 30, 2024.
They accuse him of overspending on the new Head Office building without transparency.
Mahama Ayariga, MP for Bawku Central, stated that despite inquiries, the Governor has not disclosed the current cost of the building, which he alleges has reached $250 million.
Additionally, there are concerns over the reassignment of land meant for the bank’s clinic to the Governor, with details being withheld.
The Minority claims accountability is needed, having previously protested in October 2023 against the Governor and his deputies, blaming them for the Bank of Ghana’s recent financial losses.
“Today the office is being constructed at %250 million dollars. The central bank should be held accountable,” Mr Ayariga stated.
